Module:For
Revision as of 17:25, 16 August 2018 by en>Nihiltres (Updated from sandbox: prints error if first parameter is empty (previously defaulted to "other uses"); exact-match "other uses" is still categorized)
 | This Lua module is used on 130,000+ pages. To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to it should first be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can then be added to this page in a single edit. Please consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
 | This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages, or is substituted very frequently. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing. |
